Fred,
Thank you. And thank you for all you're doing in Michigan. It was a joy to
b a small part of it firsthand several years ago, and I'm always glad when I
hear about the camp and programs you're running. It was also great to read
your article in the Braille Monitor this month.
Best,
Nathanael

Hi,
Congratulations on this and on your humility. I particularly appreciate
your efforts in the science area. This is a passion of mine and our
affiliate is working hard to increase science awareness here in Michigan.
I truly appreciate your recognition of the Federation. That is commendable.
However, without your hard work, dedication and effort this recognition
would not have occurred. So, be proud and keep up the wonderful work.
Warmest Regards,
Fred

Colleagues:
I was obviously very happy to receive the forwarded news. To clarify, my
Army Corps of Engineers District Commander exaggerates some: I am among 15
or 20 Outstanding Department of Defense Employees and Service Members with
Disabilities. I am the civilian Army recipient, and there are recipients
from several DoD components. These awards have some history of a
Federationist receiving one: Al Maneki, who worked at the National Security
Agency, received one from his component in 1998.
I wanted to thank so many of you on this list for all the mentoring, role
modeling, and encouragement you've given me throughout my high school and
college education, as a scholarship winner (in fact the Manekis were mentors
to me), and throughout my career in both state government and Federal
service. When I think of the top mentors to me in the Federation, they're
members of this division and on this e-mail list.
Finally, a significant portion of my nomination discussed my volunteering at
our STEM programs for blind youth, including Youth Slam and Junior Science
Academy. While I am the one receiving an award now, the opportunity I had
to volunteer was one we all dreamed of and built together.
Thank you!
Nathanael Wales

Teammates,
Please join me in congratulating Nathanael Wales from Planning Division for
receiving The Outstanding United States Department of Defense Employee with
a Disability Award for 2011. This award honors civilian employees and DoD
components with outstanding affirmative action programs for people with
disabilities. The recognition and publicity Nat earned helps to open
employment opportunities for other persons with handicaps. Nat is a
tremendous asset to the New York District team and is truly deserving of
this prestigious national award.
Building Strong!
